Comparison of the power between the MZ differences approach and the population-based approach (using the deviation regression model method) for detecting vQTLs. Comparisons were made between the MZ pairs approach and two different sample sizes for the population-based approach (one matching (with double the number of unrelated individuals; 20,000) and one with a typical sample size for modern GWASs (500,000)). The power of the MZ differences approach increases as the narrow-sense heritability increases.
